With GEN-FIND, you can trace your family history as far back as the 16th century in some cases. Predominantly, GEN-FIND works in the 18th century and beyond simply because that is the nature of our coverage for clients as most countries do not support good record collections much older than this.
Records can be most easily searched in English-speaking and record-keeping countries. Through an extensive agent network, GEN-FIND is also able to conduct research in other areas globally, shown in gold below.

Whether it be a commercial or private case, GEN-FIND is qualified to interpret your biological data and DNA genealogical test results as part of an entire family history or forensic research plan. Along with traditional in-depth genealogical research, our research team uses whatever supplemental evidence it can gather to help break through genealogical brick walls, find birth parents, resolve adoption tracings, uncover ethnicity concerns, unravel cases of multiple identities, locate unidentified heirs, and resolve cold case crime files. Though research results and DNA test results can be different between genealogical researchers and the various genealogical testing companies if DNA is involved, we can help you understand and interpret your findings – both traditional genealogical conclusions and DNA test results.
If it is, here are some facts you need to know:
- Many prospective clients do not understand the budget that professional genealogical research requires. Most expert-level genealogy research quotes are measured in thousands of dollars unless the search is very specific and short.
- More time spent on a project does not guarantee better results. To give your project the best chance at success, start with as much concise information as possible.
- Genealogy isn’t rocket science, but it does require patience, and persistence, along with a strong knowledge of the strategies of research, resources, and repositories available to you. Assembling your family tree or finding your long-lost uncle or locating those missing property owners will not happen overnight, or sometimes even over just one month. So, understand from the researchers’ perspective the obstacles that might be involved with your search investigation.
Unlike many peers in our community, GEN-FIND’s teams are more than just “record searchers”, but rather highly experienced “professional genealogists” in taking complex genealogical cases and reconstructing both ascendancies and descendants of a search subject.
